Il enseigne au California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Il a également été directeur du Dibner Institute for the History of Science and Technology (en) du Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Buchwald obtient un Ph.D. de l'université Harvard en 1974. Sa thèse s'intitule : Matter, the Medium, and the Electrical Current: A History of Electricity and Magnetism from 1842-1895. few folding tracks on the front-part of the wrappers, else near fine copy, no markings, inside is clean and unmarked, top right corners of the first pages lightly folded, it's still a rather nice copy‎
